title: [Tick-borne encephalitis and epilepsy].
abstract: In patients suffering from tick-borne encephalitis development of epileptic seizures, Kozhevnikov's epilepsy, Jackson's epilepsy, myoclonus-epilepsy, chorea-epilepsy Hunt's myoclonic dyssynergy and various hyperkineses without general convulsions was observed. It was found that a particular place in the structure of the convulsive syndrome was occupied by Kozhevnikov's epilepsy which was not so frequently encountered in other diseases. This is, probably, due to a particular vulnerability of the motor structures, mainly, at the spinal level, at which the final motor response is formed.
